Another batch of fruit products have been recalled after two people died in a salmonella outbreak in cantaloupes across 32 states. In addition to the deaths, 45 people have been hospitalized as the Centers for Disease Control works with the Food and Drug Administration to investigate the outbreak.

Kwik Trip, Inc. initiated a voluntary recall of three varieties of fresh-cut fruit cup and tray products because they contain the cantaloupe that is potentially contaminated with salmonella, the FDA said in an update on Tuesday.

The FDA said that the convenience stores chain recalled the products after TruFresh issued an expanded recall of fresh, whole cantaloupes. Cantaloupes recalled by TruFresh were used as a raw material in Kwik Trip, Inc. fruit cup and tray products. However, no illnesses associated with the fruit cup and tray products listed have been reported.

Recalled Kwik Trip products

The recall includes the fresh-cut fruit cup and tray products containing cantaloupe with sell-by dates of November 4, 2023, through December 3, 2023, per the FDA. The recalled products were distributed to Kwik Trip, Kwik Star, Stop-N-Go, Tobacco Outlet Plus Grocery, and Tobacco Outlet Plus convenience stores in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Michigan, Illinois, and South Dakota.

Recalled products include 6-ounce cups of "Mixed Fruits Cup" and "Cantaloupe Cup" and 16-ounce "Fruit Tray." Kwik Trip has advised consumers to immediately discard the listed products or take them back to a store for a full refund.

What are the symptoms of salmonella?

Salmonella is a bacterium that affects the intestines of people and animals, according to the CDC. People can get the salmonella infection from eating or drinking contaminated food and water or by touching infected animals, their feces, or their environment.

Salmonella symptoms include:

• Bloody diarrhea or diarrhea that lasts more than three days without improving
• Diarrhea and fever over 102 degrees Fahrenheit
• Excessive vomiting, especially if it prevents you from keeping liquids down
• Signs of dehydration, including dry mouth and throat, infrequent peeing and feeling dizzy when standing up
• Stomach cramps
• Feeling dizzy when standing up

Symptoms usually start 6 hours to 6 days after swallowing the bacteria, says the CDC. Most people recover without treatment after 4 to 7 days. The CDC recommends getting in touch with a healthcare provider if symptoms persist or get worse.

Is it safe to eat cantaloupe?

The CDC has advised against consuming, selling or serving recalled fruit. The FDA has recommended consumers to discard any food they are doubtful about. However, no warnings have been issued against completely avoiding the fruit.
